w S C Scores Early, Holds Lead> 7-0

Aniitant Sped* Editor
Washington State steam-rollered its way for 8.3 yards and the
game s only touchdown in the second quarter to defeat Oregon,
7-0, at I oilman, Saturday afternoon. A delighted Homecoming
crowd of 15,000 fans watched the Cougars rally back after their
humiliating loss to Iowa last week and really look sharp in this
fray.
A1 Kircher's fired up eleven
marked up their all-important
touchdown midway through the
second period when Quarterback
Red Golden sneaked over from
the two yards line to culminate an
83 yard march down the field by
the Cougars.
Vaughan Hitchcock, a substitute
fullback, was the hero of the drive
ns time after time he ripped
through the stubborn Oregon line
for substantial gains. His big
gainer came when he broke loose
for 27 yards from the WSC 43 to
the Oregon 30.
Kcorlng All Over
From the Oregon 8, it took just
three plays for the Cougars to
score. Hitchcock carried the oval
twice for a total advance of six
yards and then Golden boomed
across on his quarterback sneak.;
Frank Sarno kicked his extra
point try squarely through the up
rights and although nobody real
ized it at the time, this game was
all over as far as the scoring was
concerned.
L*n Casanova’s favored Oregon
squad tried desperately in the sec
ond half to get some kind of a
scoring maneuver underway but
found the Cougar defense too
tough to crack. The nearest they
managed to get to their host’s
goal in the final two quarters was
the WSC 35 midway in the last
stanza.
Best Chance In First
Actually, the best Oregon scor
ing bid came in the first quarter.
Starting from their own 15 yard
marker the Ducks marched 68
yards to the Cougar 17 before re
linquishing the ball on downs.
Larry Rose, Dick James, and Far
rell Albright handled the ball
carrying assignments on this early
Oregon assault which came to an
abrupt halt when Quarterback
George Shaw's fourth down pass

intended for Dick James in the
end zone was knocked down by the
alert Cougar secondary.
The Webfoots had another scor
ing effort stopped by the half
time gun. Led by the brilliant
passing of Shaw, Oregon moved
from their own two yard line all
the way to the WSC 35.
Kunning Game Stalls
On the other hand Oregon saw
their running game stalled almost
completely in the final two fifteen
minute periods and relied on the
passing arm of Shaw for nearly
all their yardage. General George
did not let his teammates down
either. His aerial thrusts were ac
curate all afternoon as he com
pleted 12 out of 25 tosses for a
total of 143 yards. But the Ducks
lacked a scoring punch and as a
result were unable to match their
opponent’s first half six-pointer.
The Ducks almost matched the
Cougar touchdown with less than
two minutes remaining in the
game. In sheer desperation Shaw
threw a tremendous 50 yards p«««
aimed at left end Dick Mobley in
the WSC end zone. But the play
all went for naught as Hitchcock
d e f 1 e c t ed the ball away from
Mobley.
Rose Plays Well
For Oregon, besides Shaw, soph
omore fullback Larry Rose played
a stellar ball game. Left halfback
Dick James was also a standout
for the Ducks. He proved to be
especially adept at snagging aer
ials from Shaw.

Statistically speaking the two
teams were very evenly matched.
Both the Cougars and the Ducks
rolled up 18 first downs. Washing
ton State was the stronger of the
two from the rushing standpoint
but Oregon was superior in the
passing department.
The victory for Washington
State gave them a one won and
one lost record in Pacific Coast
Conference action and left them
in sixth place. The Ducks now
have a record of no wins and
three losses in the PCC and are
in seventh place. The Oregons have
failed to tally a point in their
three league contests so far.
